- Аннотация: We present satellite-based data of the column-averaged dry air mole fraction of atmospheric carbon dioxide (XCO2) and methane (XCH4), which were derived from the radiance spectra measured by Greenhouse gases Observing SATellite (GOSAT). We have applied new version of the Photon path-length Probability Density Function (PPDF)-based algorithm to estimate XCO2 and PPDF parameters. These parameters serve to allow for optical path modification due to atmospheric light scattering and they are retrieved simultaneously with CO2 concentration using radiance spectra from all available GOSAT short wave infrared (SWIR) bands (oxygen A-band, 1.6-μm, and 2.0-μm CO2 absorption bands). For the methane abundance, retrieved from 1.67-μm absorption band, we applied optical path correction based on PPDF parameters from 1.6-μm CO2 absorption band. Similarly to widely used CO2-proxy technique, this correction assumes identical light path modifications in 1.67-μm and 1.6-μm bands. This approach is believed to offer some advantages over the proxy technique since it does not use any prior assumptions on carbon dioxide concentrations. Both carbon dioxide and methane GOSAT retrievals were validated using ground-based Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) measurements provided by the Total Carbon Column Observing Network (TCCON). For XCO2 retrievals we found subppm station-to-station bias (GOSAT versus TCCON); single-scan precision of mostly below 2 ppm (0.5%); and correlation coefficient for the Northern Hemisphere TCCON stations above 0.8. For XCH4 retrievals over TCCON sites we found single-scan precision below 1 % and correlation coefficient above 0.8.
